Hello.

[ Weiss is looking into the camera with a large glowing suit of armour behind her. She was wondering if she should perform summoning the Arma Gigas for everyone to see, but she figured that it could be a waste of time. As flashy as she can be most of the time, she decides not to be for this. ]

Since there are a lot of people here from all kinds of places, I'm sure there are some of you who are capable of summoning allies to fight by your side or fight for you. I'd like to know more about the process of summoning in other worlds. Maybe it could help me improve my summoning, too. We can meet in person if that's more convenient.

[ There are a lot of things she wants to improve on when it comes to summoning, one particular thing would be her casting time. That's not something she'll say out loud for everyone to hear, though. With her summoning request having been asked though, she dismisses the Arma Gigas and it very slowly evaporates into the air until it's completely gone. ]

I'm not sure how many Moonblessed there are here, too, but there are several people from Remnant here. We have what we call an Aura - the manifestation of one's soul. It protects us, and from experience, it looks like anyone with a soul can have their Aura unlocked, even if they aren't from Remnant. It proves to be helpful, of course, but having your Aura unlocked also drains you of all your Chroma. You could end up crystallising if you don't moonlace right away. [ She's only saying this now so awful people like Raven don't unlock Auras again and leave the person Chromaless????? PLEASE. ] Basically? Don't be an idiot, and if you want your Aura unlocked, make sure it's with somebody you trust.

You'd think that'd be the case given how Chroma seems to work. It should be, but even with what should be an adequate amount of Chroma by my measure, I can't utilize my abilities.

[ She's tried and she is quite mad about that for all the time, effort, and energy she's put into developing and honing her skills over so many decades. They're hers, after all. ]

It doesn't make any sense.

[schmisse]

Have you checked the traveller that comes every month? Maybe he has an item that could help with that.

[ She's a little determined to help in some way now. ]

[chichichi]

Lumi?

[ There's a possibility. He had said he wasn't entirely sure what certain things did when she'd browsed his shop the first time. ]

It's worth looking. Even if he doesn't have anything, I'll adapt. No cage, no snare.

[ And with her head held high. She does pause, though. ]

I assume your abilities haven't suffered from any tampering? You didn't mention exactly how summoning works for you and I don't want to assume.

[schmisse]

From what I've experienced? No, my Chroma levels don't affect my Aura at all.

[ And she supposes she's pretty lucky with that bit... ]

Although when I first arrived, what I can summon can't grow as big as I want them to. They were the size of a small dog.

[chichichi]

I wonder why the discrepancies? I'd think that keeps with sense, though. Chroma is a form of energy, but the amount one has shouldn't affect the size or potency of one's soul.

[ She folds her arms, turning it over in her head for a brief moment. ]

Nothing else odd about them or your process?

[schmisse]

I haven't noticed anything odd other than that. Everything else has been normal, as far as I'm concerned.

[ She hopes she didn't just jinx herself. ]

[chichichi]

[ Setsura does, too. It isn't the sort of thing she'd wish on a person. ]

Thanks for sharing that with me.

[ She inclines her head slightly, a smile tugging at her mouth. ]

Now, I owe you an explanation, hm? I suppose it would be something of a lesson.

[schmisse]

I'll take whatever you can offer.

[ It's still added knowledge, she thinks. That's very important. ]
